Interesting... While I do not dispute the finding (never tried
myself), I am puzzled. Why would it be so??? There simply
isn't anything in NTA-agarose that can be reduced by DTT.
NTA is coupled to agarose through spacer via AFAIR epoxy
chemistry (not affected by DTT), NTA itself is basicaly three
acetates linked together. Sepharose is just a crosslinked
agarose, so it is not affected by DTT either.
Anyone wants to bet? I say that reduced Ni-NTA agarose
can be stripped and recharged w/o a problem.
